More about JillStraw
I started making clothes 1-1/2 years ago. Making new or altering existing patterns is fun. I found transitioning to clothes fairly easy, though I still have plenty i want to learn. I love burdastyle. It's a great community and the creativity and inspirational ideas from other members are endless.
